Last week, WWE officially confirmed the return of the WWE Draft, with the event taking place on April 26 and April 29, with NXT also being included. Fightful Select has some new details, including that the Draft is being help around the same time as the NFL Draft in an effort to cash in on the NFL Draft interest.

Opinion: This is where the Draft can shake things up a good bit and that is what it is designed to do.
